The Hill We Climb: An Inaugural Poem for the Country


πŸ™ˆAnd yet another review from last summer, but I just couldn't bring myself to turn this bright photo into a black and white for a Throwback. In all honesty, I've no idea what took me so long to review this gem!


🌞Most of you heard this extraordinary poem on Inauguration Day. It was incredibly emotional for me. It spoke truth and beauty and hope. Amanda Gorman was absolutely magnificent and her light shone so brightly that day.

I had to grab a hard copy of her poem to read and re-read, because it was so meaningful to me:

"𝑾𝒉𝒆𝒏 π’…π’‚π’š π’„π’π’Žπ’†π’”, π’˜π’† π’‚π’”π’Œ 𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒔𝒆𝒍𝒗𝒆𝒔, π’˜π’‰π’†π’“π’† 𝒄𝒂𝒏 π’˜π’† π’‡π’Šπ’π’… π’π’Šπ’ˆπ’‰π’• π’Šπ’ π’•π’‰π’Šπ’” 𝒏𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓-π’†π’π’…π’Šπ’π’ˆ 𝒔𝒉𝒂𝒅𝒆?"

"𝑭𝒐𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 π’Šπ’” π’‚π’π’˜π’‚π’šπ’” π’π’Šπ’ˆπ’‰π’•, π’Šπ’‡ π’π’π’π’š π’˜π’†'𝒓𝒆 𝒃𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒆 π’†π’π’π’–π’ˆπ’‰ 𝒕𝒐 𝒔𝒆𝒆 π’Šπ’•...

And a hush fell over the crowd...
